  • Trump’s Nationalist Conservative White Christian Agenda

    Originally published: Guancha on February 27, 2025 (more by Guancha)

    The Trump-orchestrated blitzkrieg exposition of a Nationalist Conservative White Christian Agenda raises a series of questions, including: What are the internal contradictions within the US ruling class that have given rise to recent developments? What are the underlying changes within the base and superstructure of the United States? What are the long-term ideological and political consequences on US foreign policy? How should the Global South respond?

  • 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing

    An interpretation of the CPC’s 20th congress report: the western media’s omertà on the China model of modernization and its disingenuous response to the CPC’s self-revolution

    Originally published: Guancha on November 2, 2022 by Deborah Veneziale (more by Guancha)

    The Western media, due to their own bias, have either ignored or maliciously misinterpreted General Secretary Xi Jinping’s recently published report on the just concluded 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC). All peace-loving and progressive people who are concerned about the world should cross these barriers of bias and carefully interpret this important report.

    Why the U.S. failed to control COVID-19: incompetence, class violence, deception, and lies

    Originally published: Guancha on June 29, 2022 (more by Guancha)

    The United States (together with its Western allies) always tries to tell China what to do in managing COVID-19 outbreaks, and since the whole city of Shanghai was under lockdown, the U.S. media seems to have even more reasons to criticize China’s anti-virus policy.

  • American Flag

    Who is leading the United States to war?

    Deborah Veneziale

    The world is sensing the United States’s growing rapacious intent for war. Amid the development of the Ukraine crisis, the United States and NATO have been attempting to escalate their proxy war with Russia while continuing to intensify their siege and provocations against China.

  • Russian Tanks

    The U.S. is preparing war with China and Russia at the same time

    Deborah Veneziale

    In the strategic vision of the U.S., Russia should be disarmed to become part of Europe as a “sidekick” and a bridgehead to contain China, the “more dangerous enemy” as Kissinger described it.
